Jack,

Your HMC should report any issue that bubles up as a serviceable event and yes cache batteries count. As Pete mentioned there are multiple methods of communication but you need to enable them. (HMC: Service management/Enable Elecronic Service Agent.) and then you need to test the connection - I suggest you do so monthly - (HMC: Serivice managementManaget Outbound Connectivity). There you can also select the methods desired to contact IBM.

On the partitions you also can do SNDSRVRQS *TEST to see if the partition can contact IBM. Also recommended monthly.

Hope that helps!

- Larry

can talk to IBM but on the I5 side sndtstrqs is not working, I was hoping
that the HMC would pick up on this and report it.

What's your definition of an "I5OS" problem? Stuff you see in STRSST,
Hardware service manager, Work with service action log
or software also? Because stuff that appears in the service action log
will generally be reported by the hmc.

The HMC can send the problems to IBM either via Modem, Internet, or
Internet over VPN. In addition, the HMC can also alert you to problems
via
SMTP.

Subject: Using HMC to contact IBM with LPARS

Is there a way to determine if A) That LPARS can send wrkprb
information
to
an HMC and B) That the HMC can indeed send these issues to IBM. Is this
possible to suffice using the go service route and using VPN native from
I5-OS to contact IBM.
